The reason Sorcerer/Sage CC is OP in PvP

and made it a channel to balance it out.... So it is interpretable, and has knockback and such.

I don't get it. How is it a disadvantage that it's a channel? Would you prefer a full cast time ability? Instant cast as a main filler/damage ability isn't an option for casters because that would be hilariously overpowered.

Channel means when you hit me part of the cast is gone. All that talk about slow, any ranged strike removed part of the spell. It makes it so more then just an interupt affects it, ALL damage affects it. That is a big draw back..

For a normal cast even if you hit me I take a little push back but I still hit you for the full amount, not half the amount.

^u seem to base a lot around this ideas^

did a dev say it or are u makeing up how the games 'suposed' to be

Nah. They can safely nerf this class without worry.

Why? These players will go back to WoW and get there heads kicked in on a frost mage/shadowpriest/lock/hunter and come right back and realize there are no ranged specs in WoW they can excel at as easily as full balance/madness (if they nerf hybrid) or merc/commando.

To be honest I think most would reroll merc/commando after threatening to quit. Then they would see that balance/madness is still better and go back to their sage/sorc lol.

Add to all this? Most of us are giving this game until the next WoW expansion hits to fix their crap. No point in playing WoW at the end of an expansion anyways. People are too far behind in gear.

To the people who cried about ops/scoundrels? Try getting hit by a rogue with legendary daggers hehe. These people would quit WoW again halfway through their first battleground lol.

You gain the advantage of having the first 1-2 ticks go through regardless of interrupts though. I still don't see how it's that big a difference.

No that would nerf it too much I think.....

What other hybrid exists in this game that hasn't been nerfed?

All other classes are balanced and played with deep talent specs, not hybrid specs and the only one that was (and wasn't close to as OP as yours) was nerfed.

You can thank Captain Obvious for this observation.

They never intended for people to go even 11 talents in other trees. It should be painfully obvious at this point. The hybrid sorc/sage spec goes WAY beyond that...

again, so I get half damage when everyone else would get full damage, how is that not that big of a difference.. so 50 is not that far from 100?

you do realize it is already a channel right?
